Okay but genuine question does fiction count as prior art because I have literally written this story
En el período 2021-2024 los inmigrantes han aportado el grueso de la fuerza laboral, al tiempo que el empleo de los españoles crecía intensamente, sobre todo entre los trabajos de mayor valor añadido y mejor remunerados. @raymond-torres.bsky.social en el blog.

Es MUCHO más importante para cualquier usuario de transporte público tener servicios con frecuencias altas, tiempos de viaje competitivos y fiable que billetes casi gratuitos.
En vez de subvencionar otro año más tarifas super reducidas de transporte público, se podrían volver a los precios anteriores (que ya estaban subvencionados) y utilizar esos ingresos extra para mejorar la calidad del servicio y mantenimiento.
Pero ya se sabe.

Local Labor Market Effects of the 2002 Bush Steel Tariffs† By James Lake and Ding Liu* President George W. Bush imposed safeguard tariffs on steel in early 2002. Using US input-output tables and a generalized difference-in-difference methodology, we analyze the local labor market employment effects of these tariffs depending on the local labor market’s reliance on steel as an input and as part of local production. The tariffs did not boost local steel employment but substantially depressed local employment in steel-consuming industries for many years after Bush removed them. The tariffs also led to a persistent exit of steel-intensive manufacturing establishments, suggesting a role for plant-level fixed entry costs in translating the temporary shock into persistent outcomes
The large increase in steel tariffs under GW Bush did not cause an increase in steel-industry employment.
But it did hurt the US industries that use steel to make things, reducing employment there long after the tariffs were gone.
